It has since become an industry leader. According to DeFi Lllama merics, over $6.4 billion is currently locked in the Aave ecosystem. Here, Ethereum takes the lion’s share. More importantly, Aave has stood the test of time, given that most DeFi projects don’t deliver as promised.

Called Aave Arc, this new product allows agencies to access Aave’s offerings while remaining compliant with regulatory bodies such as the SEC and FATF. A move that has seen the platform scale from its individual client base to the larger corporate market.

Popular metaverse Axie Infinity

ADA, LINK and QNT analysis

Crypto analyst Sahana Vibhute analyzes the price movements of Cardano, Chainlink and Quant as follows.

Cardano (ADA)

Cardano price is breaking out of the bearish triangle. It shows a bullish trend higher. However, the bears used all their resources to keep the price below $0.55. So, the break is still not confirmed. However, a clear break above certain levels is possible to confirm the upcoming bullish trend.

ADA price is currently out of the triangle. But due to the lack of pressure to buy, the probability of a fraud seems pretty high. Therefore, a daily close above $0.57 is likely to push the price higher than the bears can reach. In this case, it is possible to open a path towards the upper critical resistance at $0.64.

Chainlink (LINK)

With the start of the bullish week, the Chainlink price has also risen significantly. Altcoin broke out of the pattern. It has reached a high which indicates a resurgence of the bullish trend. Therefore, LINK is poised to increase by 8% to more than 10% to hit double digits soon.

LINK price has now broken the symmetrical triangle long before it reaches the top of the triangle. Therefore, the rally may be more prone to losing most of the gains and re-entering the consolidation phase. It is then possible for LINK to maintain the accumulated consolidation throughout the week. Also, it is likely to break out quickly after reaching the top.

Quant (QNT)

Quant price has been heavily depleted since the beginning of 2022. It hit lows near $40 in the recent past. However, the altcoin quickly recovered. It has risen significantly from the lows to current levels near $130.

QNT price has repeatedly recorded green candles with a spike in buying volume. Currently, the price seems to have reached its daily highs. Therefore, significant congestion is likely. Therefore, a minor pullback below $125 could trigger a catapult move to higher highs near $150.
